1948 Map of Atwater

About this map

Castle Field and the adjacent U S Military Reservation dominate the northern portion of this landscape, situated just north of the growing town of Atwater. The map illustrates a highly engineered agricultural environment, where the Canal system and various laterals feed orchards and fields bounded by an extensive grid of local roads like Fruitland Avenue and Mulberry Avenue. Two major rail lines, the Southern Pacific and the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe, cut diagonally across the terrain, shaping the development of settlements like Buhach and Fergus.
